Contested Will: Who Wrote Shakespeare? by James Shapiro

A really interesting read that makes its case well and touches on a variety of interesting stuff besides, such as the advent of autobiography and what Shakespeare meant to people like Sigmund Freud and Mark Twain. It was gratifying to me to read as a long-time lover of Shakespeare's works and a believer in the imaginative (and collaborative!) power of theatre, of writing, and of storytelling.
